The Hueytown, Ala., native was in Dallas to receive the Davey O'Brien Award on Monday.

Winston and the Seminoles open the season Aug. 30 when Florida State faces Oklahoma State in the Cowboys Classic.

He said, though, his goal was to be back in Dallas on Jan. 12 for the national championship game.

"Actually we made up a little slogan: From Dallas to Dallas," Winston told The Dallas Morning News. "Obviously, we want to win our first game and hopefully we'll end up there in the last one."

Winston, who threw for 4,057 yards and 40 touchdowns last season, is hungry.

"I'm still not satisfied honestly," Winston said. "You have to do it over and over again to be successful."

He wants to play in the NFL and Major League Baseball.

"Ultimately, I might have to make a decision," Winston said. "It is my dream to play both sports."

"Obviously, it would be a tremendous honor to follow in the footsteps of the Bo Jacksons and the Deion Sanders to play both sports professionally. That's just something that I have to worry about when it comes," he told The Associated Press.
